Chapter 107 of "Supreme of the Heavenly Realm" opens presenting: Chapter 107: Chapter 104 Five Poison SaintAfter the battle at the square, the Cao family... Don’t stop now!

Chapter 107: Chapter 104 Five Poison SaintAfter the battle at the square, the Cao family had moved away from Green Sun City as he had predicted. This large clan that once nearly dominated Green Sun County had left Green Sun City overnight. As for their whereabouts, Ye Xuan couldn’t be bothered to care. Meanwhile, the Cao family’s remaining forces in Green Sun County, along with some businesses that had not been managed in time, were also divided up between the Tang family and the Spiritual Items Workshop. Even if the Cao family wanted to return to Green Sun County in the future, regaining their former power would be as difficult as ascending to heaven. The name of the Cao family would gradually be erased from the minds of the people of Green Sun County. For at least a considerable period of time, Green Sun County would maintain the situation of the Tang family’s dominance. However, compared to the Cao family’s arrogance, the Tang family had always had a good reputation in Green Sun County. Their becoming the overlords was met with little opposition, and most people were happy to accept this outcome. Seeing the Tang family’s firm position in Great Eagle City, Ye Xuan was able to let go of his worries. Having one more friend meant having one more path; his earnest assistance to the Tang family was not only because of Tang Xiaoyan but also with the hope of forging a good relationship that might yield good returns in the future. After letting go of his worries, Ye Xuan prepared to leave. Having resolved to enter the Heavenly Martial Hall, there was no way he could miss this year’s Disciple Examination. Mid-June was approaching, and there was less than a month left. Therefore, seven days after the Cao family had left Green Sun County, and once the situation in Green Sun City had completely stabilized, Ye Xuan formally took leave of Tang Zhen, ready to depart for Great Hua’s Capital City to attend the entrance examination held by the Heavenly Martial Hall. To Ye Xuan’s surprise, Tang Xiaoyan, who originally did not plan to take part in the examination, expressed the desire to accompany Ye Xuan and participate in the entrance examination when he mentioned leaving. Such a request was, of course, something Ye Xuan couldn’t refuse. He also thought Tang Xiaoyan should give it a try. If she could become a Disciple of the Heavenly Martial Hall, her future prospects for development would be better. Whether she would pass was another matter. After giving Nie Tao a heads up in advance, the two said goodbye to Tang Zhen and left Green Sun City through the city gates, heading north on their journey. ... As the most powerful country among the six nations of the Tiannan, Great Hua Country had an extremely vast territory, almost twice the size of the Great Xia Kingdom. Green Sun County was located at the southern border of Great Hua Country, a whopping ten thousand miles away from the capital’s heartland. Even if they traveled non-stop every day, it would take more than ten days, not to mention the need for rest. A month’s time was actually not very ample. However, barring any unforeseen accidents along the way, they could still arrive a few days early. It took a full ten days for Ye Xuan and his companion to cover less than half the distance, finally arriving at a place called Huaiyin City to rest and recuperate. In an ordinary inn in Huaiyin City, Ye Xuan and Tang Xiaoyan were dining. "We haven’t covered half the distance in ten days. Starting tomorrow, we’ll have to pick up the pace." If it were just Ye Xuan alone, he surely would have traveled much farther, but after all, he was accompanied by Tang Xiaoyan, which slowed down the progress somewhat. Although they could just barely make it, time was getting tight. Moreover, while the journey had been calm so far, Ye Xuan always felt that something was not quite right. Arriving at their destination earlier would also allow him to be at ease. "Mm. I also want to go to the Capital and have some fun." Tang Xiaoyan nodded, a hint of excitement appearing on her pretty face. Great Hua’s Capital City was one of the most prosperous cities in the Tiannan Region. For many people, such a place was akin to paradise. Although she had visited the Capital a few times before, this trip was different; it was just her and Ye Xuan, without anyone else’s restrictions, no doubt making it much more relaxed. "We’re going to take the examination, not to play. If you fail the examination, you’ll have to go back to Green Sun County alone," Ye Xuan immediately put on a stern face and said. "I know. But worrying about it now won’t help if I pass or not." Tang Xiaoyan responded somewhat innocently. Hearing this, Ye Xuan was somewhat at a loss for words. This young girl had made up her mind to participate; couldn’t she be a bit more serious? Although what she said made sense, sometimes a last-minute effort could be surprisingly useful. When the time came, he would have to see if there was any way to help her out. If he really couldn’t, then there was nothing he could do. At that moment, as the two talked, there were three oddly dressed men in black sitting in a private room nearby. These three men in black occasionally cast glances at Ye Xuan, clearly paying close attention to every move he made. "Five Poison, are you sure that the young man out there is the one Lord Ghost General is looking for?" The burly one among them asked in a low voice to the elderly man in black. "Absolutely." The elderly man in black cracked his dry lips, and his hoarse, ancient voice followed, "The kid named Ye Xuan who escaped from Panlong Mountain definitely used the Blood Demon Body Sacrifice Skill; there’s no doubt about that. After that, he crossed Panlong Mountain, and the first place he landed should be Green Sun County." "According to the information we have and the series of actions this kid recently took, this young man is Ye Xuan who fled from the Great Xia Kingdom." The elderly man in black asserted decisively. "What are we waiting for? If it’s someone Lord Ghost General wants us to find, then just capture him," another lean man in black coldly declared. "If it were that simple, I would have made a move already. Do I need your reminder?" the elderly man in black gave the lean man a sidelong glance, then sneered with a twinkle in his eye, "Roughly half a month ago, this youngster was openly participating in a contest and defeated a Half-step Martial Sect Master face to face. Do you think he’s so easy to capture? Without a plan, we simply don’t have the capability to catch him." "What do we do then? Has Lord Ghost General been informed of this matter?" The burly man in black was also taken aback. Among the three of them present, only the robed elder had reached the level of a Half-step Martial Sect, while the remaining two were merely at the Seventh Grade Martial Master Realm. The three of them together might be confident enough to kill Ye Xuan, but capturing him alive was a different story. "He has been informed. But Lord Ghost General is not currently in the Great Hua Country, and even if he rushes over with all his might, it will still take quite some time. By then, this young man might have already reached the Capital of the Great Hua Country. Once there, even Lord Ghost General would not dare to make a move." The Capital of the Great Hua Country was a place teeming with experts. Although the power of Ghost General was strong, he was not yet brazen enough to act so recklessly. At present, the remnants of the Black Demon Sect’s leaders were still lurking in the shadows, with no plans to reveal themselves and act openly. They, as minor minions, certainly did not dare to strike carelessly. To them, Ghost General was a high-level figure, but in the eyes of the real leaders of the Black Demon Sect, he might also just be a lackey. Upon hearing this, the two men in black looked somewhat troubled as their eyes flickered. Although there were other Black Demon Sect experts in the Great Hua Country, they were under orders from Ghost General, who clearly intended to monopolize the inheritance of the Heavenly Slaughter King on Ye Xuan, not giving anyone else a chance. "So, it’s up to us to take action." A cold light flashed in the eyes of the elderly man in black. "We’ll make our move tonight. It’s difficult to capture him by overt means, so we’ll do it covertly. Poisoning and sneaking an attack is what I, the Five Poison Saint, do best." "Good!" The other two men in black immediately brightened, grinning with a sinister smile. They seemed to forget that the elderly man in black before them was one of the few poison experts remaining in the Black Demon Sect. He may not be skilled at direct confrontation, but underhanded tactics were the Black Demon Sect’s specialty. Meanwhile, outside, Ye Xuan was completely unaware of the impending crisis, still chatting and laughing with Tang Xiaoyan. This scene, observed by the elder in black, only made the sinister smile at the corner of his mouth grow thicker—an indication that tonight would bring a great harvest. Three more hours quickly passed, and the time of deep silence in the middle of the night soon arrived. In the shadowy corridor, three dark figures emerged, the very trio under the command of Ghost General known as the Five Poison. "Five Poison, it’s your show now." The two burly men in black sneered coldly, a sly smile appearing on their faces. Without any superfluous words, the Five Poison Saint stretched out his wrinkled palm. From his withered skin, it almost seemed like worms were squirming, emerging from between the flesh. Black, stinking True Qi, like disgusting black poison insects, writhed within his palms. "Go." These threads of profoundly poisonous black smoke drifted through the air like little bugs, staying condensed and hovering outside the corridor for a moment before slipping into Ye Xuan’s room through a small hole in the door. Under the cover of darkness, the black smoke was colorless and intangible, silent and stealthy, as if sentient, directly approaching the source of life—closer to Ye Xuan’s location and penetrating into his seven facial orifices. "What’s this, poison?" The moment the poisonous gas entered his body, Ye Xuan’s body jolted awake, suddenly roused from his light sleep. His True Qi made him exceptionally sensitive to poison, allowing him to detect it in an instant. He quickly mobilized his True Qi to counteract the spread of the poison, and at the same time, Ye Xuan took out a Detoxification Pill, holding his breath at several key points to prevent further invasion of the poison. "Who wants to assassinate me?" Having suppressed the poison, Ye Xuan could not help but frown. His enemies were none other than the Jun, Xie, and the Cao families. It was impossible for the Jun and Xie families to find this place, and the Cao family wouldn’t dare to take revenge... so who could it be? "Since someone wants to poison me, let’s use their plan against them. Pretend to be poisoned and see who it is." Ye Xuan purposely forced the poison to accumulate around his eyes and mouth, causing darkening at the corners to appear as if he had been severely poisoned. He then deliberately suppressed his vital energy, feigning a greatly weakened state. After three or four minutes, the door gently creaked open as expected. In the darkness, three vague figures appeared, with one of the burly men in black deliberately bumping into Ye Xuan’s body, which gave no reaction. "Five Poison, your poison arts are truly formidable. In just a few minutes, you’ve reduced this kid to a state of confusion," the burly man in black said with a grinned smile. "Hmph, my poison arts can even overcome a Half-step Martial Sect powerhouse, let alone a mere Martial Master. Alright, quickly take this lad away. Capturing him and presenting him to Lord Ghost General will surely be a great achievement." A look of satisfaction appeared on the elderly man in black’s face. Following his words, the burly man and the lean one took out ropes, ready to bind Ye Xuan. However, just as they approached Ye Xuan’s side, lifting the blanket to tie him up, Ye Xuan’s eyes suddenly flashed open with a "whoosh" at that moment, and the Spiritual Edge Sword, which he had hidden under the blanket, suddenly gleamed, slicing straight towards the throats of the two men.
